This is a classic pin depicting a covered wagon or Conestoga wagon pulled by Oxen. The old Conestoga wagons were a masterpiece of design.  Their floors curved upward to prevent their contents from tipping and shifting.

The frame and suspension were made of wood, while the wheels were clad with iron tyres for greater durability. While horses were also used, oxen held up better under heat and severe conditions.  We reproduced this from an antique mold and it was hand cast in solid, jeweler's pewter.
